NCM features migration to LMS 4.2

NCM is going away. It is recommend to move to LMS. We already have a LMS deployment. Currently just used for Monitoring/Performance.
Trying to figure out how to get the Configuration change piece that we used NCM for into LMS. Not really having any luck.
What I am really wanting to do is configuration archive, device config change notices (when a device config changes I can run report to see who and what was changed), and configuration comparisions (between old and new configs)
Can anyone point me in the right direction towards docs, etc?
Thanks.

Since you've not been exercising all the features up until now, you may have credentials issues whose effect you're just now seeing. I'd start off running an immediate Sync Archive job (how to) and validate the results. You may see errors in that job. Remedy them. then run it again.
You will now have a baseline. Next set up a periodic job (from the same location, period based on your desired and expected rate of changes - usually something between daily and weekly) to monitor for changes.
With that all working, the dashboard should be more useful to you.
You may want to have a look at two good overview guides:
LMS 4.1 Deployment Guide
Prime LMS SBA Deployment Guide

Data migration from LMS 3.2 to 4.1

Hi! Are there any methods for statistic data importing from old LMS 3.2 to a new LMS 3.1 version? I know about devices invemtory export/import function, but also i want to save all data gathered from previous time.

Hi ,
Kindly check the below link for Data Migration from 3.2 to LMS 4.1:

Tiger feature migrate to Lion?

Tiger had a feature that would allow you to press the F10 key and multiple files in Photoshop would mosaic and fill the desktop. Does Lion have that feature?
Not expecting for Apple to create a feature that Adobe should be coding, but thought I'd ask anyway.

If your MacBook can only use 2gb you may have the model 1,1 Core Duo which cannot run Lion. If it's the model 2,1 Core 2 Duo you can run Lion and it can use 3gb of RAM. To see which model you have go to the Apple in the upper left corner and select About This Mac, then click on More Info. When System Profiler comes up check the Model Identifier.
For RAM check OWC http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/memory/MacBook/DDR2/
Here's instructions on replacing RAM http://homeoffice.consumerelectronicsnet.com/articles/viewarticle.jsp?id=44404

CPI2.x - LMS feature question

When and with which CPI version could we count with this features:
1. AD/LDAP-User Integration (was in LMS)
2. extending ISE integration limit of currently only 1 pair
3. shadow config files (was in LMS)
4. edit Management IP (was in LMS)
5. can set Devicestatus UnManaged / Managed (was in LMS)
6. Threshold configuration in all Monitoring templates (custom SNMP, Interface Health ...) (was in LMS)
or will this be dropped generally?
thx for information, Steffen

Hi Afroj,
I know this matrix already. But the level of the document is to generic, to can answer the questions. Q3-6 are functionalities at very basic level and essential to can operate a network. That were basic features in LMS and even so basic features at competition NMS's from different vendors. Its not understandable to me, why it was forgotten to migrate this LMS basic functions to CPI in the perspective of product management.
I gave you the 5 points, because I appreciate your afort to keep the community with many answer to a lot of persons alive and let keep the community participating on the TAC-Knowledge arround Prime NMS products. It was just an answer, but not a helping answer:) But doesnt mater - I lost a lot of expectations regarding CPI's real ability of Cisco unified management. v2.0 is still just only a WCS upgrade.

Rahul,
I think you have issues with your LMS 3.1 server which has been advsied in some other threads to upgrade to atleast LMS 3.2.1 which is free upgrade for you.
Using a End of support product will have consequenses of lack of support mostly. Let us know the challenges you have in upgrade.
People here in CSC can help and suggest solutions.
-Thanks

LMS to PI1.2 migration question

Hello,
I want to ask 3 questions about data migration from LMS to PI1.2 as the virtual marketing synonym for the real existing product NCS1.2:
1. Is there a real working and relyable data migration from LMS to PI1.2(NCS)?
2. What is the minimum LMS version supported for data migration into NCS?
3. Where is the data migration procedure documented?
thx for answers,
Steffen

There is no migration. NCS and LSM don't have anything in common.
A conversion of the DCR export into a format NCS can import is all I expect
In January a version of NCS/PI should become available that has most functionality (that cisco feels is important), that is similar to that of LMS but in its own (surrely different/perhaps better) way.
I have no idea what to expect yet. I just hope for the best.
Cheers,
Michel

Ciscoworks LMS 3.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2

In order to complete the upgrade the LMS 3.x runs over a physical server that ends with the upgrade(server its gona be retired), the think is that the Cisco Prime comes with an UCS and its gona run over a VM. The question here is the "Cisco Prime Infrastructure 1.1 - Maj Upg from LMS 2.x/3.x" media could be runs as clean install, I mean with no LMS 3.x intalled before? an the "Prime Infrastructure LMS 4.2 - 1.5K Device Maj Upg Lic" could be registered with no license installed of LMS 3.x?

There are a couple of things to distinguish:
1. The product SKU you need to order to migrate from LMS 3 to LMS 4.2.
2. The license file that is installed on that new LMS server.
#1 is based on Cisco agreeing, usually through the partner or reseller you are working with, that you are entitled to order the upgrade SKU (vs. buy a complete new product). The upgrade SKUs are all listed in the ordering guide here.
L-PI12-1.5K-UP (note - NOT the 1.1 product description you noted in the original post) would be the SKU for a major upgrade from LMS 2.x/3.x to the current Prime Infrastructure 1.2 release at the 1500 device license level. That upgrade includes licenses for both PI 1.2 and Prime LMS 4.2. You may choose which to install - most LMS customers stick with LMS for now as PI 1.2 does not yet have full feature parity. Your managed devices should not exceed 1500 combined (in this case) but that combined number is not enforced technically by the product's license daemon.
Once you have purchased the product and have the media you can install it on any host that meets the installation prerequisites as far as OS, memory, disk etc. A clean installation of LMS does not check for or require a previous installation as far as technical checks.
#2 - Once you have installed the new LMS server (and optionally a step near the end of installation, you need to add in the license file (*.lic file). That is obtained through the Cisco licensing portal (or via the TAC if you prefer) using the Product Activation Key (PAK) received with your product.

Backup/restore questions LMS 4.2

Hello,
I have several questions regarding data migration from LMS 3.2.1 to LMS 4.2.We will perform backup and restore procedure on new LMS4.2 server machine .
1. I am wondering what will happen with admin password aftrer restore, and all the other passwords in LMS. What will be effective? What will happen with database passwords?
2. Other thing is : LMS 3.2.1 is installed on D:\ProgramFiles\CSCOpx and the new LMS 4.2.1 is installed in D:\CSCOpx
Will there be problems during restore, because the paths on old and new LMS server are not the same?
3. When to perform the licensing? Should I apply license before restore? I think I would have to apply it before beacause customer has 300 devices and eval license iz for 100 only.
4. Does PI_CM license - Compliance Management License comes with the product? How do we get this license? I am aware that this CAAM is new feature in 4.2 version so I am not sure does the customer have rights on it. They have bought upgrade from 3.2 to 4.1 and they have valid support contract so we will go to 4.2 version.
Thanks!
Marija

Following are the answers :
1. LMS's user info and passwords are stored in cwpass file under NMSROOT\lib\classpath\com\cisco\nm\cmf\servlet, which is also
backed up with DB backup. Hence restore would bring all previous user names and passwords.
2. Ciscoworks has a mechanism which doesn't bothers the install directory. It sets environment variable as NMSROOT which is replaced by
the install directory and hence there should not be any issue. Please note that Inter-OS resotre are not supported.
3. You can apply the license anytime, but it is good to install it before backup restore, else the excess of devices, more than 100
will go to unmanaged state and will have to be brought back to managed state once lic is applied.
4. CAAM lic has to be purchased separately. You can contact lic. team or your accounts team for this.Till that time you can use it with its 60 days eval lic.

Upgrade Cisco Prime LMS 4.0 to Cisco Prime Infrastructure 2.1

My company has asked me to migrate Prime LMS 4.0 to Prime Infrastructure 2.0 for a client and can not find the guide, the questions are? the migration is possible without an intermediate step? and There is a guide to update LMS 4.0 to PI 2.0 ??
Thanks in advance.

Prime LMS 4.2.2 added support for the PI template directly:
Export Data for Prime Infrastructure
Cisco Prime LAN Management Solution supports data migration to Prime Infrastructure 1.2. This feature enables user to export the Device Credentials Repository (DCR) data from LMS 4.2.x versions to Prime Infrastructure 1.2. The data backup status and backup location are displayed at the bottom of the Export Data for Prime Infrastructure page. The data being exported from LMS and the data imported back to PI are listed as follows.
Data exported from LMS
•Device Credentials Repository (DCR)
•Software Image Management
•Config Archive
•Change Audit
•Syslog
Data Imported to PI
Device Credentials Repository

Does Cisco Prime have a replacement product for NCM or Network Compliance Manager?

Does the Cisco Prime application development team have a product that replaces the NCM or Network Compliance Manager?

Both Prime and LMS can do baseline compliance, after a fashion. LMS's is much more mature in my estimation. Prime is more around the lines of deploying templates.
The regulatory compliance functions as of now are in only LMS's Compliance and Audit Manager (CAAM) function. It's quite useful, matching the baseline compliance features.
An LMS license is included with PI, but it does need to be on its own server (or separate VM).

Upgrade Cisco LMS to PI

We currently operate Cisco Prime LMS v4.1 and we're looking to upgrade Cisco PI (Prime Infrastructure) in the next few weeks.
Is there an upgrade path from Cisco LMS to PI? The reading I have completed seems to indicate that an upgrade can only be completed from Cisco NCS.
If I need to perform a new install of PI, can I somehow Migrate / Import my existing device database and config into the new software? I have configured some syslog fault rules for e-mail notification, config templates, custom reports, etc, that I would also like to keep and not necessarily recreate.
Thanks.

As cwallin noted, LMS 4.2.2 patch added the ability to migrate some information from LMS to PI.
Most customers would not be well-served by migrating a mature LMS implementation to PI at this time due to the fact that PI does not yet have feature parity with LMS, Even PI 2.0 (due out in a couple of months) will not have complete feature parity.
See this link for a current comparison.

Problem restoring LMS 2.6 data to LMS 4.0

Hello,
I'm trying to migrate from LMS 2.6 on a Windows 2003 server to LMS 4.0 on Windows 2008 R2.
Two things I'll note here which might help future people attempting to use the LMS 4.0 backup/restore scripts as detailed in the migration document:
1) Make sure nobody has installed cygwin on the server before you run the backup scripts. If they have, remove it and the reg keys.
2) On the target server make sure to run the restore script CMD session using runas or disable UAC on Windows 2008 or the restore scripts will fail
My next problem I can't get past. I've been running the restore since yesterday morning and it still hasn't finished. It hasn't moved from 40% complete migrating the IPM data but in the last 24 hours it has eaten up 6Gb more RAM.

Should I just wait? Is this something that might take days if I've got a lot of IPM data or is it broken? I don't really care about keeping IPM data so could I do something to complete the data migration for everything else? Any advice appreciated.
regards,
Aaron

The restore can take a long time if you have a lot of data. The problem is the database needs to be completely unloaded and reloaded to convert from ASA 9 to ASA 10. However, if you do not care about IPM data, and you still have LMS 2.6 running, you can take a new LMS backup not using the wrapper.pl script (this will keep IPM from being backed up).

CiscoWorks LMS 4.0.1 - Database inconsistency

Hello all,
I have a problem with LMS 4.0.1.
In the Inventory / Device Administration, I see all the devices, monitoring works perfect (highutilization, operationallydown, etc.). User Tracking works fine for 85% of the devices (15% is the newer devices added recently).
In the topology services, I can't see the new devices.
I try to explain more detailed.
Let's assume we have 3 switches (SW1, SW2, SW3), and I just added SW4 and SW5 to LMS.
In the monitoring/inventory, 5 switches are fine.
User tracking works fine for the first 3 switches.
Topology works for the first 3 switches, I can't see the 2 new devices in the All Devices group.
I thought the LMS uses one database for devices, but it seems to be there are two (or more) databases.
How could I check the consistenxy and how could I solve the problem (SW4 and SW5 should be in All Devices Group..)
Thanks in advance, and please let me know if there is a good article about this...

Since cisco has removed the possibility to filter devices from going to an application for LMS, hence all application are in auto allocation, there is nothing you can do to influence the devices to be present in any application.
They should just be in all applications. It should just work (automagically :-)
I don't have any larger network customer anymore, and only 2 small network customers with 28 and 43 devices where all devices, are still in all applications according to the collection summary, but I doubt it will last.
For all others failed + succeeded does not match the number of managed devices and is different for the various collectors. This basically renders the view useless.
TAC solution is to clear the databases but it won't last long.
I hope cisco fixes this before migrating the LMS functionality into NCS.

LMS 4.2.2 Interface utilisation on Nexus 7000

Hi All,
I'm trying to poll some interfaces for their utilization on a nexus 7000 through LMS 4.2.2.
When I create a poller fot the specific instances, the LMS recognises the instances, but after activating the poller I get the error "No Such Instance - The specified instance is not available".
No info is displayed when I generate an interface utilization report for the specific nexus.
When I activate the automonitor for interface utilization, the interfaces on the nexus are polled.
On the cisco website there are some features listed which LMS does not support on the Nexus 7000, but polling is not in that list (neither in the supported feature list).
Any tips?
Thanks for your help.

Any Idea..??

LMS 4.0.1 cannot access rmeng database via Open Database Schema Support

Hi,
we are running LMS 3.2 and I am using Open Database Schema Support to transfer the data from cmf, ani and rmeng databases.
We now want to migrate to LMS 4.0.1 and I am trying to use the same scripts to do the same. I am using iAnyWhere JDBC Access Method, the same one I use successfully with LMS 3.2. Can access the tables in cmf and ani databases, but cannot the tables in rmeng database. I do not think my scripts are wrong, I more think enabling access to databases does not work correctly.
I tried to run dbaccess.pl in debug mode and can see there are errors for example while enabling access to the table NETWORK_DEVICES in rmeng, please see the log below.
We tried to restart LMS and also the whole server ( it is MS Windows 2008 R2 on VMware ), but this did not help.
Appreciate if anyone has an idea what could be wrong.
Thanks,
Vlad

Hello Joseph,
thanks for the reply. I was confused because I am not getting any such errors on LMS 3.2 server.
I am using many Java programs that work well with LMS3.2, but let me mention one that is probably the best to demonstrate the issue I have with the new version. It works well on LMS3.2 with all databases. On LMS4.0.1 it works well with cmf and ani, but cannot dig any data from rmeng.
Here is the batch I run on the LMS 4.0.1 server ( it is not the whole file as it is much larger ):
